MAP sensor connection

Next part to get a ride in to the new century was the long vintage intake manifold. To handle petroleum/air mixture post Y2K there must be a air nipple to connect the hose from the MAP sensor (Manifold Absolute Pressure) in the manifold.
A dedicated spot in the manifold did the job easier.

The manifold ready for conversion

Followed by drilling and threading

And the final job ready to go back on the bike

A previous job to the manifold was exposed when it was dismounted. 

The top mounting thread was gone when I bought the old intake. 

I made a thick steel plate and bolted to the intake and then made a new thread all the way through both the new fresh steel and in to the vintage cast aluminum. 

So now the old intake can live on for many more years.
